Hi friends

How can any normal human being reason with any one from the Atheists Agnostics who start deriding,ridiculing and resort to foul speech when they don't find reason is supporting them? Or they think themselves safe in a haven where they want a monologue with the Atheists and Agnostics only; and are not ready to discuss with anybody who oppose their wrong concepts!

Thanks

The first thing I do is check what I'm doing before I hammer in a nail all the way. Saves me a lot of trouble.

Paarsurrey: regarding the analogy. You say using the wrong tool for the job can damage the door. I agree. As humans are living in the real world and the holy books are specifically designed for spiritual guidance, isn't the quran and bible damaging to the reality of said humans?

OK paarsurrey, a lot of the questions here and also with ray seem to always go back to the Quran which is not surprising.

So HOW specifically do YOU know that the Quran is the literal word of Allah?

What process did you go through to come to that conclusion? Is it at all possible in you world view, that some evidence may appear in the future that might cast some doubt in you mind?

And even if it was once the literal word of Allah, has it not been changed? Even Muslim scholars admit that there was once more than one version and that human interpretation and intervention was required to update it from the original defective script. What's your take on this, paarsurrey?
